FITTING THE FLUE OUTLET AND
HOT PLATE (Where Provided)
Note:
Not applicable for units supplied with a fixed
flue outlet spigot
The flue outlet spigot is found packed inside the
appliance . The hot plate (blanking plate) is sup-
plied fitted to the top opening and is removed by
turning clockwise (as is the flue outlet).
Smear a very thin layer of fire cement on the
mating faces of the flue outlet and the hot plate.
Fit the outlet to the appliance in the desired
position.
Lock into place by rotating anti-clockwise and
tighten by tapping with a block of wood and mallet
from inside of the appliance. Similarly, fit the hot
plate (blanking plate) to the unused opening. Clean
off any surplus fire cement.
Place appliance on the hearth and make sure that
it is level and does not rock.
Connect the chimney ensuring all joints are sealed
with fire cement.
Important note :
For fixed and removable flue spigot types:-
The flue pipe
must
be fitted
inside
the outlet spigot.
Failure to do so could result in the spillage of
condensation and combustion residues running
down the flue onto the stove canopy.

FLUES AND CHIMNEYS
The flue draw is critical on any installation and
should be checked to ensure that it matches what
is specified. If it is higher than recommended,
provision must be made to correct the over draw.
The draw can vary in different weather conditions
and the customer should be made aware of this.
Failure to correct an over-drawing flue will
invalidate the warranty.
Please remember that chimney draught is
dependent on four main factors :
Flue gas temperature
Flue height
Flue size
Flue terminal
The stove must be connected to a suitable and
efficient flue so that products of combustion
(fumes) from the stove are expelled to the outside
air. To ensure a good up draught it is important
that the flue gases are kept warm and that the flue
size suits the stove. The termination of the outlet at
the top of the flue also needs to comply with
Local Building Codes.
The minimum effective height of the flue should be
at least 15 feet from the top of the stove to the top
of the flue outlet. When warm the flue draught
should be between 0.1 to 0.2 mb. (1-2 “ H20)
A chimney may comply with regulations but could
still be subject to down draught and similar
problems. A chimney terminating above the ridge
level is generally less likely to suffer such
problems.
If a new chimney is being provided it should fully
comply with the relevant Building Regulations that
specify the requirements for solid fuel burning
installations. Suitable types of chimney include the
following :
Masonry Chimney:
A code-approved masonry chimney with a flue lin-
er with a 6 inches diameter (15.24cm)
Factory Made Chimney:
A HT type factory-built chimney approved UL103
or ULC 629 with 6 inches diameter (15.24 cm)
Chimney Connector:
Arada Farringdon Stoves
